A Republican aide has claimed that LGBTQ+ organisations are training eight-year-old children how to use butt plugs and dildos.

In a recently resurfaced speech, Erin Mazzoni, who reportedly works for the campaign of Franklin, Tennessee Republican mayoral candidate Gabrielle Hanson, alleged that children are being given sex toys by LGBTQ+ activists.

Mazzoni told a meeting of the Franklin Board of Mayor and Aldermen earlier this that she’d moved to Tennessee from Bucks County, in Pennsylvania, after apparently discovering that an LGBTQ+ organisation was teaching children how to use sex toys, which, she claimed, caused the community to “fall apart”.

Between sobs, she said: “It started out as Pride coming in, and I thought everything would be OK. It ended with a Rainbow Room where eight to 12-year-old kids were given butt plugs and dildos and trained.

Republicans live in a completely different reality.

The problem is they project it onto others.

Like Christians who don't rape and murder because they're scared of hell, assume people who don't believe do it all the time. They're just telling on themselves that if they didn't think Sky Daddy was watching them, then why wouldn't they do horrible shit.

They don't live in any REALITY. They live in a Fox News fever dream.

The one they describe is usually so much nicer, too. Kids getting sex education that isn’t abstinence only or the STD shock image hour? I wish.

These fundamentalists gutted sex ed and now we wonder why STI rates are up. Fuck them and everything they stand for

Nah, with a pine cone. Or maybe a cactus.

Had a chance to look at Fox news lately? My family turned to it last night and it was ridiculous lol. Look at this

It was all about a parent who was blaming weed for her sons suicide.

Wouldn’t this stuff have to be real in order for it to be a reality?

Butt plug training, stolen elections, no climate change, Hillary Clinton harvesting children in pizza restaurants, etc. The GOP platform reads like fiction self-published on Amazon.
